im just asking if this is true. do furs suck?

[Delta1212]

They suck.

[Aguacenta]

If you're not a tech dealer then they are comparable to gold. Furs have a stigma, and the first thing people think when someone say they have them, is "ZOMG THAT SUCKS", but having furs doesn't mean you are going to fail in Cybernations. Although, yes, furs are one of the weaker resources in CN.

Trouble is, as mentioned above, because everyones reaction is that its crap then you will have difficulty keeping trades.. The actual properties of it are not that much worser than anything else, but it carries a bad reputation..

[Aleksandrov]

Furs by itself is arguably the worst resource in the game.

If it wasn't needed for the financial set, I would definitely say that furs are terrible and nations with furs aren't going to last a day.

I'm importing furs right now (guy has something needed for Beer/Cons./FF), there not bad, it provides a tiny boost to my economy, and some..land I think. They are not as bad as everyone says, imo

I have furs as my recource, and i hate it

[Brotherington]

Furs confer a tiny income boost and thats it. Compared to anything else they are worthless.

[King Cathal]

I know they do nothing for me! No-one will trade with me!

furs have not hurt my nation or trades.......4 of my 5 trades have been for over 6 months.....my NS seems to be doing just fine.

I don't think their is a such thing as a "bad" resource. It all depends on what the nation and what they want. Realize that furs Increase citizen’s daily income +$3.50 and increases the natural growth of a nation by 10%, not bad especially for a new nation.

AS an individual resource, there is nothing bad with furs. (remeber that the 10%refers to land, which is useful for large nations) However, it doesn't fit into any of the good combo's, and neither the 3 bonus combo or the 5 bonus combo requires it.

Unless you count Affluent Population, which may not seem useful but can counteract loss of happiness due to high taxes.

Also natural growth sounds like population but eitherway it's useful. I am only a week old and have already had to purchase 29.746 miles of land to conatin my population explosion, i am close to 2,000 working citizens already.

I have furs as a natural resource and my nation is turning 600 this week.

[King Cathal]

Actually i looked and furs are actually good enough! They give your citizen +$3.50 income! And they give you +%10 natural growth!
